The Angels dropped to 63-96 to set a franchise record for losses in a season after managing six hits on Thursday in a 7-0 loss to the White Sox.
The Chicago White Sox averted a record-breaking loss for the third straight day, beating the Angels 7-0 on Thursday behind Chris Flexen’s sharp pitching performance. Chicago improved to 39-120 with its three-game sweep of the Angels. It has been tied with the 1962 New York Mets for the modern major league record for losses since Sunday’s 4-2 setback at San Diego. The White Sox have three games left this weekend at Detroit. They finished their home schedule with a 23-58 record.
The White Sox put it away with a season-high seven runs in the fifth inning, helped by an error on shortstop Jack López. Andrew Vaughn hit a two-run single, and Lenyn Sosa doubled home two more runs. López moved from second base to shortstop after Zach Neto departed because of right shoulder irritation. Neto got hurt when he tried to take second on a pitch in the dirt in the fourth. Vaughn had three of Chicago’s 12 hits in front of a crowd of 15,678 on a sunny afternoon.
